This Skate Shop is a Family Business
The situation in the house might not have been a big deal, but Nami and her partner Marc have two little boys – another reason for the change. The new store is a true family business as Nami shares it with her brother David Kressebuch who runs 360 Media, an online-marketing agency. “It was crucial that I was able to do this together with him. I have two children and it’s a huge advantage that if I can’t work because I or the children are ill, he can still open the store.”
The new store in Lucerne is almost an hour’s drive away for her, but she chose this location because her brother and family live there.
“Lucerne is my hometown. I grew up there, my family lives there. I associate a lot with Lucerne, I feel like I belong there. We feel at home in Lucerne.”
Though Nami prepared herself for another challenge: “The quad scene in Lucerne is practically non-existent, but we see that as potential. We have big plans with workshops and dance classes, and want to host rollouts in the spring.”
